I can't remember where I found some info that was posted on this, so I am asking here.
What tyres are people using that resembles the original ones?
Cheers.

Hi Rossguzzi,
First I also thought to buy the Duro brand tyres from ducati vintage.
Now I will build up my Scrambler 350 with Heidenau K34 tyres. I like the he combination of a classic look and modern mix components.

So after much thought, I am thinking of putting tyres on like these in the picture. One brand is Continental TKC 80.
Anyone tried fitting these?

Hi Ross
you need a pretty tall tire otherwise you land up with a big gap between tire and the fender .
i put a Bridgestone TW 39 trailwing in the size 90 /100 19 on one of my scramblers
